SOUTH VIEW Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average semi-detached house price in the Calderdale local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three SOUTH VIEW sales between September 2003 and February 2020 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the June 2012 sale was for 70% above the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 70% above the HPI over time, until the February 2020 sale, where it falls to 53% above the HPI. The line then continues to track at 53% above the HPI.

What might SOUTH VIEW be worth now?

SOUTH VIEW might now be worth an estimated £324,353.

This is based on house price inflation of 32.4%, between February 2020 and December 2024, for semi-detached houses, in the Calderdale local authority area, as calculated by the Office for National Statistics and published in their UK House Price Index (HPI).

The 32.4% inflationary increase is applied to the most recent sale price for SOUTH VIEW of £245,000 on 7th February 2020. For the value to have increased from £245,000 to £324,353 over the three years and two months to December 2024, the following assumptions must hold true:

• The value of SOUTH VIEW has moved in line with the HPI for semi-detached houses in the Calderdale local authority area.
• The February 2020 sale price of £245,000 represented a fair market value for the property.
• The size, condition, and specification of SOUTH VIEW has not materially changed since February 2020.
